Sometimes the hardest part of reading in a new language is figuring out how the words come together to form a meaningful sentence.

Every language is different, and until you've been exposed to the common patterns of your new language you'll have a hard time understanding what you're seeing and hearing.

Fortunately LingQ has some great beginner lessons meant to help you get prepared. They are part of our Patterns series, and you can find them in a number of languages.
